RUNTIME ADDRESS DISAMBIGUATION IN ACCELERATION HARDWARE
Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes a processor to execute instructions and to interact with memory, and acceleration hardware, to execute a sub-program corresponding to instructions. A set of input queues includes a store address queue to receive, from the acceleration hardware, a first address of the memory, the first address associated with a store operation and a store data queue to receive, from the acceleration hardware, first data to be stored at the first address of the memory. The set of input queues also includes a completion queue to buffer response data for a load operation. A disambiguator circuit, coupled to the set of input queues and the memory, is to, responsive to determining the load operation, which succeeds the store operation, has an address conflict with the first address, copy the first data from the store data queue into the completion queue for the load operation.
